Our Story

Lauren Colliver, the heart behind Renew & Restore Wellness, has been working in the medical field and as an entrepreneur in Blacksburg since 2009. After years of seeing her husband’s patients struggle with pain and limited recovery options while waiting for advanced treatments, Lauren wanted to provide a solution that was immediate, non-invasive, and effective. She recognized the need for therapies that could alleviate joint and muscle pain and reduce chronic inflammation outside the traditional insurance model of medicine. Inspired by her husband, Dr. Ethan Colliver's medical experience, Lauren established Renew & Restore Wellness. All of the therapies offered, including cryotherapy, red light therapy, and compression therapy, are proven methods that Dr. Colliver learned during his training and that Lauren has tailored to support the community's wellness needs.
